Deep Sleeper!

When I went to tuck the boys in last night, this is how I found Bryce...half on the bed and half on his nightstand!  Good thing he's a deep sleeper!

God's Beauty

We just love this beautiful Dogwood tree at our new house.  Drew feels very lucky that he has a direct view from his 2nd story bedroom window.  Perfect for my boy who loves and appreciates nature!

Go WOLVES!

Bryce & Drew are playing their first "team sport" this Spring.  Soccer is so much better when they only have 6-7 players on a team playing 3 on 3....brilliant!  No big huddles of kiddos falling all over each other on the field!

Happy 5th Birthday!

Bryce & Drew turned 5 on March 28th.  We normally have a big party for them but we decided to postpone that for now...life is just too crazy with the recent purchase our new home, home improvement projects all while still residing in the rental.  SO, we had a nice quiet birthday...just the 4 of us.

The boys started off their special day with their favorite breakfast...homemade blueberry pancakes.

At preschool, they thought it was pretty cool to wear their birthday crowns!

Their Nana had a bunch of really awesome decorated airplane cookies made to hand out to the class.  They were so cute!  Boeing 787 (the airplane Nana builds) and Delta (Daddy's airline.)  Their Papa carried them as his carry on all the way from Washington to Georgia to make sure they got here safely!  The kiddos loved them!

The class sang Happy Birthday to them and then they got to pick a special gift out of the birthday box!

For months, Bryce & Drew have been asking to see Star Wars.  So, Star Wars it was!!!

They got Star Wars light sabres, pj's, Legos, sticker books and the DVD trilogy.  They were SO into the movie and asked a million questions.  Definitely lots of smiles, kisses and hugs from 2 happy boys!

So thankful for my precious family!

Uncle Eric Is Home!

Eric got back from his year-long deployment to Afghanistan in February...thankfully safe and sound!  Mom and Mike flew to visit him and the girls at Ft. Campell and decided to drive down to see us for a quick weekend.  It was wonderful seeing them all and always fun to have my niece Jordyn here to play with the boys.  We got possession of our new house that weekend so it was a little chaotic, but thankfully, I did have time to capture a few cute pics!
Jordyn is so glad to have her Daddy home!

Jordyn looks so cute in her little bikini!

We celebrated Jordyn, Bryce & Drew's birthdays early while they were here.  I took lots of video of Jordyn but I guess forgot to snap pics!

Thanks for making the drive to see us.  We love you all and are thankful for our time with you!

Our New Home

When we moved to Georgia 6 months ago, we decided to rent a home so we could have time to get to know the area.  It's been a long, stressful, 8 month long house-hunting process but thankfully it has come to a close.  With the help of our wonderful Realtor, Kristi, we finally found the house that is best for us.  After moving 13 times in 16 years of marriage, we HOPE and PRAY this is the house we live in for a LONG, LONG time!

We are SO excited to break in our pool.  The boys are going to have so much fun on the waterslide and are looking so forward to roasting hot dogs and marshmallows on the fire pit!

Looking forward to entertaining family and friends in the years to come!
